New Delhi: A fortnight-long session of Parliament, the last of the current Lok Sabha, will begin from February 12.

"We have decided to convene the Parliament session from February 12 and it will last till February 26," Parliamentary Affairs Minister Vayalar Ravi told reporters after a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Parliamentary Affairs here.

"There are two-three ordinances that we have to replace as well. The private members day is also there. These decisions have been taken in the meeting today (Thursday)," he said.

To a question whether the government will table any new legislation during this session, he said, "it all depends on

time and the cooperation of members."

"Some of the bills passed by the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha are pending. They have to be taken up and so we need the cooperation of the opposition also," he said.

Asked if there is any chance of a no-confidence motion during the session, he said, "it depends."

The President's address would outline the Government's future policies and programmes and both houses would have discussions on motion of thanks to the President for her address.

This would be the last session of the 14th Lok Sabha, the term of which expires in the middle of May.
